This can be especially true when you de-metaphor and start talking straight up about sound-design. A little inspiration goes a long way, and sitting through stodgy tutorials can make you feel a bit sleepy and bloated.

So we've been prepping regular snack-sized morsels of sound design week-by-week – featuring Phase Plant, Snap Heap, Multipass, and the whole Snapin ecosystem – and adding them to a delicious playlist.

You can even share them with your friends. But be aware – some are healthier than others. Watch out for number 5. We're not sure it's actually edible.
